Plenty Of Coal.

/. w. Brown, who lives about six
miles northwest of Hermosa, has noticed
for some time past that there was con
siderable float" coal on his place, and
has recently been prospecting little
He has sunk a shaft about nine feet
deep and there struck two foot vein OF
anthracite coal. He says it is Of an ex.
cellent quality and the indications are
most favorable for there being a
still thicker and better vein below, -
rs the lower portion of this vein was
much better than the upper. Mr.. Brown
says this vein is in a slanting position
and that it gradually thickens. He
promises to bring us in large sample
for exhibition, that all may see its
genuineness. This place is located neal
the old Sidney stage barn, on the ole
well known Francheau ranch. Mr.
Brown is taking the necessary steps fol
the prospecting and working of this en-
terprise upon large scale, as he is fully
confident of the quality Of the coal, ant
believes that it is in very extensive
quantities.-Herm osa Pilot.

In the midst Of the festivities incident
to the celebration Of the 4th Of July at
Hot Springs, Or. L. G. Fuller Of that
place, we'll known throughout the Hills
as an honorable and courteous gentle
man, having been brought to the verge
Of insanity by the inordinate use of
morphine, suddenly terminated his
existance through the medium of this
alluring drug. While this sad event
may be said to have greatly shocked his
many friends, it created little surprise,
as he had on previous occasion, at
tempted suicide, which: attempt was
thwarted by the timely intervention of
physician. A coroner's jury was
called, the verdict of which was to the
effect Of his having come to his death
from some poisonous drug administered
by his own hand.

Exceeded His Authority.

The county board Of equalization, as
may be seen BY reference to the pro-
ceedings Of their late session, appearing
in this issue of the CHRONICLE, believing
that the action Of r. 8. Hilton, late az
SCISSOR Of this county, ip the matter OF
raising the assessments of Cyrus NJ.
Belknap, j. w. Bishop, Frank Bender
and others, without consultation or
notification, was unjust, unreasonable
and without authority of law, annulled
his action by reducing them to the
amount Of the original valuation, which
we regard as being entirely proper; as
such action virtually excludes the tax
payer from the privilege of appearing
before the board Of equalization. by
Withholding from him the fact Of the
change in his assessment.
In the case Of Belknap and Bender,
the amount Of the assessed valuation
was raised nearly two hundred per cent
without their knowledge, which it is
claimed was largely in excess Of the
value of their possessions, 1t is to be
hoped that the action Of the board,
which will doubtless be universally
commended, will also prevent further
acts Of this character on TIE part of
future Custer county assessors.

Ominous Silence,

kilograms from Rapid City to the
Omaha Herald says that work on the
immense fume will commence in few
days. Although the Rapid City journ-
ais are silent on the subject, it is quite
generally conceded that the immense
flume will be an immense fraud, that
will take its place beside the Big Bend
and Greenwood enterprises. The Tri-
bune will withhold its opinion and
reason for the same, until an investiga-
ton is made which it has instituted
hoping that the result will show some
merit in the undertaking worthy Of sup
port, or at least sileuce.-Lead City
Tribune.
We are not sufficiently informed upon
the big fume project to pass upon its
merits but accepting silence as token
of merit, We conclude that the Big Bend,
by Rapid journals, is considered a
double breasted bonanza.

Milling Ore Tests.

Professors Carpenter and Jansen OF
the school Of mines have been engaged
in making tests upon Ruby Basin ores.
which have previously been considered
refractory, and have determined the
fact Of the ore being susceptible of
simple reduction by a teaching process
which resulted in the saving of 90 per
cent of the assay. The ores treated
were from the Ross Hannibal mine.
Professors Carpenter and Jansen desire
samples of ore from other mines for the
purpose Of experiment, the results Of
which will be made pnblic by publica-
ton in the columns of local journal
1t is stated by these gentlemen that the
ores of Ruby Basin can be milled cheap
ly and successfully.

Point this Way.

1t is not difficult matter to provoke
a political discussion with some of our
friends, or to cause rip roaring editori-
al TO be written in defense of some
,nide min NJ Jack-daw like White, but
to get newspaper in the Black Hills to
say word pro or con concerning the
Bell telephone, or the Louisiana State
lottery, is an undertaking the Republican
thus far has been unable to accomplish &.
1t would therefore appear that the Re-
publican is the only unsubsidized paper
in the Hills. In the language of the
politician we point to it with PRIDE

The Republican man might very
consistently raise another finger in the

thus far succeeded fairly we'll in stand.

Tommy. the "Exspurt.o

Thomas II. White, the Deadwood cor
respondent of the London Mining News,
who has recently gained such an un-
enyiable reputation by disparaging an
important prospective mining section of
the Black Hills, by assuring English
readers that it will cost twenty shillings
for every shillings' worth of tin obtain
ed from Harney Peak tin properties, in
his recent answer in the Deadwood
Pioneer to the just criticism of the
Rapid Republican, whiningly says:
"In all the Republicans defense Of
this Harney Peak tin business there are
several things painfully apparent. First
its desire TO crush out Thos. II. White
U. S. Dep. Mineral Surveyor, no differ
ence how, but to get rid Of him any
way"
Upon which the Republican COM
ments as follows:
"Who would imagine such whine
would come from Thos. Ii. White, the
celebrated and world renowned mining
engineer, who only few days ago
boasted he was SO well known in New
York. London, heaven, sheol, etc, be-
fore the Republican knew what post
hole was. Poor Tommy, don't cry !
The Republican is sorry, but when you
hint that a certain individual" in
spired any attack upon you, you lie.
When the Republican asked certain in
dividuals whose mining interests you
wished to belittle why they did not
take steps to have you prosecuted for
your wantonness and matchmaking con-
duct. We were told you were man Of
small caliber, libidinous and q man
without reputation or standing in your
own community, and that you We're
| now troubled with the black vomit, and
that your career as mining exspurt"
would be as short as il has been in
plorious."

Glover William.

William Davidson, who has attained
to his present notoriety as a horse thief
under the fragrant title of Glover Bill,
who several weeks ago accomplished
the astounding feat Of delivering him
self from the impregnable bastile at
Hot Springs, was recaptured at Hat
creek, brought back to the Springs, and
again incarcerated in the same prison,
where he again effected his escape on
the 2nd inst. The pursuit of the fugi-
tive resulted in a sad accident, which
the Hot Springs Star describes as fol-
lows:
"A sad and distressing accident oc-
| Cured while search was being made for
| the prisoner, which resulted in the
shooting of w. Cook, young man who
has been in the employ of A. +. Jones
1t seems that Cook had his horse picket
Ell on the upland, west OF town, and
was preparing to leave for home about
10 o'clock in the evening, when two
members of the search party, VIM
Culvert and Will Dudley, came upon
him and supposing he was the missing
prisoner ordered him to throw up his
hands, which he failed to do, and Jump
| ing onto his horse, started off when the
boys opened fire on him, one ball enter
ing the left shoulder and disabling him.
| He was taken to Willor's restaurant and
Drs. Stewart and Stanley summoned,
who dressed the wound and relieved
the suffering as much as possible. 1t
\ was clearly a case of mistaken identity,
and no blame can be attached to the
parties who did the shooting as it GER
tainly looked very suspicious. 1t is the
general opinion that they were justified
| in shooting under the circumstances
but it is sad blow to the victim of this
| unfortunate affair. The doctors report
the injured man improving, but fears
are entertained that the wound will
| result in stiff Joint"

Carpenters Comments.

Professor Carpenters comments on
Tom Whites article in the London Min
ing News, which article and comments
appeared in the Rapid Daily Republican
of the 18th inst, strikes us as being the
hardest hit that this profusely titled
defamer has yet received through the
columns of the Black Hills press. The
professors structures, while they are by
no means harsh or severe, have the
effect of thoroughly exposing the fallaci-
Gus character Of Whites outrageous
declarations; and leave that vaunted
exspurt so deep IN the mire of misrepre-
sentation, that the combined efforts OF
the Pioneer and Herald, will be power.
less to extricate him.

d. d M. SURVEY.

Albert, brother of Julius Deetken,
came in from his Crook county ranch
yesterday. He reports the presence of

Of Big Beaver hading in the direction of
Sundance, establishing and stalking a
regular line crossing the Elkhorn near
Chadron, and the Cheyenne ner Sturgis
ranch, thence up the Big Beaver. The
men are very reticent and nothing can
be learned Of their plans or objective
point. 1t is generally believed, how
ever, that the line will be established
well into Montana this season.-Times.

following; The B 4 NJ. surveyors, who
have been working up Beaver for some
time, arrived on Blacks Flat, about four
miles from town, last week, and CON

Important Decision,

The decision of Judge Thomas in the
case of Lenhart & Wells vs. Gilbert f.
Bailey ct al. at Rapid. on the 9th inst.
may be deemed of considerable inn
portance, affecting, as it does, many of
the cases on the court calendars Of the
territory. Under this decision, actions
cannot be brought in the district court
by plaintiffs as co-partners, until they
have published a notice of the iorma-
ton and object Of such partnership,
which in very large majority Of cases
has not been so published.

An Embezzler Arrested.

A long time ago it was noted by the
officers of the Elkhorn company that
something queer pertained to the office
at Buffalo Gap. Some weeks ago Geo.
+. Hair, the then agent, was suspended,
and Fred Anthony. formerly cashier in
the company's Office here, was given
charge Of the station. Travelling Au
ditor Moses arrived in Buffalo Gap this
week and commenced an examination
of Hairs accounts. This resulted in the
discovery of shortage of $745. Moses
telegraphed to Fowler & Coad, the COM
pany's attorneys, and Coad went down
Hair admitted taking the money and
was placed under arrest. He will have
hearing in justice court at Buffalo
Gap at nine o'clock this morning. Hair
is thought to have used the money
gambling.-Journal, 8.
The preliminary hearing in the above
case resulted in the offender being
bound over to await the action Of the
Custer county grand jury. His bail was
fixed at $500, which WIS furnished
Hair is said to have admitted the taking
Of the money, and it is believed that the
money was lost by gambling.

The Opening Of the Saratoga
Restaurant.

Owing to the extensive improve
ments at the Saratoga, the proprietors,
Messrs. T. A. De Lay and David Perry,
had to disappoint their mary patrons
and friends by not being ready to re-
ceive them on Saturday last. Many
were their to demolish those delicious
terrapin stews, Eastern oysters, frog
legs, etc., gotten up by that cele-
brated Chef A. Perrier, well-known to
all old San Francisco epicures as the
finest caterer on the coast. But the
public will not be disappointed on
Wednesday next, October 9TH. On
the afternoon of that day Messrs. T. A.
De Lay, David Perry and A. Perrier
are going to inaugurate a long-felt
want in Los Angeles, a French res
taurant, with all the meaning that

all the delicacies of the sea-
son. A cafe where you can
have your private rooms, drink your
delicious coffee and take quiet siesta

He was informed that trade is in a
